"Master Hou, I heard that you have gone to Qingyuanmen to be an immortal master, how can you have time to come here?" asked Tong Lei.

"This time I went on a mission nearby, passed by here, and found that there is our Qingyuanmen Immortal Garden, and the scenery here is good, so let's take a look. Li Yun did not directly state the purpose of the trip.

"I see. Fairy Garden... There's nothing to see, if you like the scenery here, the end will definitely accompany you around. Tong Lei snorted, his eyes flickering a little.

"The general is a busy man, how dare he bother? I'll just walk by myself. However, the fairy garden must be seen, and it is better to report the situation to the sect. Li Yun said with a smile.

When Tong Lei heard Li Yun say this, he knew that Xianyuan couldn't hide it, and his heart suddenly became uneasy.

After thinking about it, he decided that it would be better to confess, and hurriedly said: "Alas, Hou Ye doesn't know, the spirit rune grass in the fairy garden grows slowly, and the harvest has been poor year after year, and the protective array has been destroyed, and the Wuqinzi Immortal Master who came here to investigate last time was also seriously injured and returned to Qingyuan Gate. In recent days, the fairy garden has been stolen again, and the spirit rune grass has been stolen. In short, if this continues, I am afraid that the position of the general will not be long after. ”

"The spirit rune grass has been stolen?!," Li Yun exclaimed slightly.

"Master Hou, this is true! It happened in the past few days, I don't know who stole it, so many of our soldiers were unnoticed, it's incredible!" Tong Lei said loudly.

"I see," Li Yun groaned.

He actually knew that Wuqinzi was injured by the thunderbolt, as for the person who stole the spirit rune grass, if it was the past few days, it was very likely that it was the person who had gathered from all over the place to explore the treasure, with the cultivation of these people, how could Tong Lei and these ordinary soldiers find out.

"General Copper, can you accompany me to the Immortal Garden immediately?"

"Of course, the last general will take Hou Ye with him. ”

Tong Lei took Li Yun and entered the fairy garden.

Li Yun saw that the fairy garden here is not completely flat, but built according to the mountain, with ups and downs, scattered and scattered, green mountains and green waters, and rich in natural landscapes.

Walking in the fairy garden, as far as the eye can see, there is almost no figure of spirit rune grass, it seems that it has been stolen as Tong Lei said, but he can still feel a trace of spiritual energy escaping, moisturizing the fairy field.

Li Yun nodded secretly, with such a level of spiritual energy, the spirit rune grass can indeed grow, but if it can be a little richer, it can reach the level required for the normal growth of the spirit rune grass.

"It seems that it is precisely because of the lack of aura level that the spirit rune grass grows slowly. Maybe it wasn't like that before. Li Yun said secretly in his heart.

"Master, could it be that the spiritual veins here are about to dry up?" Xiao Xing said.

"It seems that this is the reason, but it still needs to be investigated, and it is not easy to draw conclusions. ”

"Not bad. ”

Li Yun inspected all the eyes of the protective array very carefully, and found that there were signs of destruction.

"General Tong, it seems that the big array has been destroyed for a long time, why don't you repair these formations?" Li Yunqi said.

"Master Hou doesn't know, it takes a lot of Xuanshi to repair the protective array, and this place is far away from the imperial capital, and our military supplies are all transported directly from the imperial capital, and it will take at least three to four months on the road. Last time I sent in a request report, but it may take a while for it to arrive. ”

"Can't you get it from nearby Jinghai City?"

"Master Hou, the amount of Xuanshi required is huge, this cost is not at all affordable for Mirror Sea City, and besides, a lot of their inventory has long been depleted by us, and it is impossible to retrieve it from them now. ”

"I see. However, in my opinion, it doesn't really matter whether you want this protective array or not. ”

"Oh, why did Master Hou say that?" Tong Lei was stunned.

"With your army here, ordinary mortals don't dare to approach here at all, and if you deal with these people who steal spirit rune grass, this big array is useless, it is better not to leave it alone, lest it continue to consume military supplies. Li Yun suggested.

"Hou Ye is reasonable, and he will immediately repair the book and report to the imperial court. Tong Lei agreed.

"Don't be in a hurry, wait for this batch of Xuanshi to come and repair the book. Just send these dark stones to the garrison as a reward, so as to boost their morale, so that you, the general, should also have face. Li Yun said with a smile.

"It's... Thank you, Lord Hou!!"

Tong Lei was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him, Li Yun's words relieved him of the pressure of being depressed for a long time, and his mood suddenly improved a lot.

Li Yun chatted with Tong Lei while observing carefully.

Walking through a while, Xiaoxing suddenly said: "Master, there is an abnormality!"

"What's abnormal?!" Li Yun was stunned.

"This array seems to have an aura similar to demonic energy..."

Li Yun's heart shook violently when he heard this, and he quickly sensed it.

The monk has a natural sense of rejection of demonic energy, however, Li Yun doesn't seem to be too repulsive to demonic energy, but feels a little close, so Li Yun's sensitivity to it is not as high as Xiaoxing's.

However, after careful induction, it was really found that there was a trace of demonic qi mixed in the aura in this array, some of which were dispersed into the surrounding air, and some of which polluted Xiantian.

"It's... Could it be that it is because of this demonic qi that the spirit rune grass does not grow vigorously?!" Li Yun's mind turned sharply.

"It should be like this, otherwise, having such a level of spiritual energy is enough to make the spirit rune grass grow better. Xiaoxing analyzed.

Li Yun quickly checked the array eyes in many places, and found that there were faint traces of demonic energy, although it was not too obvious, but it was enough to affect the growth of the spirit rune grass.

Moreover, not only in these formations, but also in some surface cracks in the fairy garden, this situation can also be found.

"Oh no! It looks like there are demons here, so we have to be careful. Xiaoxing said.

"Yes! The mountain range must be thoroughly examined to find out the exact location of the demons. ”

Li Yun's mind was racing, and he immediately said to Tong Lei: "General, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, you immediately gather the garrison and go to Jinghai City to wait for my news." If anything happens here, don't come and check it out. ”

"Master Hou, what's going on?!" Tong Lei asked in surprise.

"I'll tell you later! Believe me, though, it's for your own good and the sergeants. Li Yun said categorically.

"It's... Okay! Master Hou, the last general believes in you! The last general immediately gathers his army and retreats to Jinghai City!"

Tong Lei turned around and hurried away!

Li Yun waited for Tong Lei to go away, and immediately used the "shadow technique" he had just learned, and his figure gradually disappeared in broad daylight, and began to conduct a comprehensive investigation in the fairy garden.

This shadow technique can only be cultivated by those who have a mutated spiritual root like a dark spirit root, and there are only a handful of people in the world who have this kind of spiritual root.

Of course, this is not to say that no one can see him at all.

If someone could detect his aura fluctuations, it would be possible to find out, but Li Yun had also learned the advanced spirit concealment technique, so that as long as he didn't act violently to cause spiritual power mutations, then only people who were higher than Jin Dan cultivation could find him.

......

Li Yun found that the demonic qi seemed to be thicker and thicker the further south he went, and he couldn't help but follow the traces of the demonic qi and head south.

Along the way, you can see the Qiulong Mountains stretching for thousands of miles from northeast to southwest, surrounded by the Sea of Mirrors, and the scenery is infinitely magnificent.

"It's a great place to make a video. We can use this as a background for the next video of Sanssouci Peak. Li Yun exclaimed.

"Master, this is a rare opportunity, I will burn it now, and then I just need to add characters to it and make it into a video. ”

"That makes sense! This will save a lot of money!" Li Yun praised.

Xiaoxing immediately took action and burned all the infinite scenery along the way.

Li Yun met a lot of people along the way, but none of these people seemed to be aware of the demonic energy. This is because the demonic qi is looming, and if it weren't for someone like Li Yun who is specifically looking for it, it would be really difficult to detect.

Gradually, Li Yun has approached the central area of the Qiulong Mountain Range, and it can be seen that the popularity is gradually rising, and the monks from all walks of life are haunting the dense forests of the mountain range, and they should all be looking for treasures.

"Hey, did these two people find something?" Li Yun said secretly. I saw that on a high peak, two people were excitedly pointing to the opposite side and talking non-stop.

"Why don't you go and have a look?" suggested Xiaoxing.

"Okay!" Li Yun slowly dived over.

The two men, a man and a woman, were standing on the top of a high mountain, looking at a large canyon in front of them, pointing and talking about something.

"Lori, this seems to be the place depicted on the map. The friar said.

"It's a bit like it, it's just a lot more clouds, probably related to today's weather. Lori nodded.

"Could it be that the treasure is hidden here?"

"No matter, Feishan, as long as it is possible, we will report it, and when the time comes, the entire 'Scattered Cultivation Alliance' will be surveyed in a unified manner. Lori said.

"Okay, then mark this place first, and we'll go around. Feishan said.

The two of them took out a map, drew a circle on it, and then put it away and continued walking.

"Scattered Cultivation Alliance?!"

Li Yun was slightly stunned, he didn't expect that the news Qin Lan said was extremely accurate, and the scattered cultivators actually formed an alliance to hunt for treasures, so that their strength increased greatly, and they would definitely be able to confront other sects.

As I was thinking about it, I suddenly felt something and looked up.

I saw that in the distance in the sky, there were seven or eight flying sword lights flying in and out, and there was a monk standing on each sword light, and the clothes were from the Star Sword Sect, it turned out that Xiao Teng, Qin Lan and others also found here.

"Senior brother, this should be the main peak of the Qiulong Mountain Range, right?" Qin Lan said.

"According to the signs on the map, this is undoubtedly the main peak of the Qiulong Mountains. Xiao Teng nodded.

"Great! I hope we weren't late, or someone else might have taken the treasure first. Qin Lan said excitedly.

"Senior sister, don't worry, our Star Sword Sect is one of the first forces to get this news, with our speed, I believe that no one else will catch up with us. Xiao Teng said.

"The Qiulong Mountain Range belongs to the Qingyuan Gate, I wonder if there is a team of monks from the Qingyuan Gate stationed there, if there is, it will be a bit troublesome..."Qin Lan said worriedly.

She hadn't learned anything about Qingyuanmen from Li Yun, so it was no wonder she was worried.
